[QUOTE="longtimefan, post: 111163, member: 145"] I do not think I said Sanders is as good as or better then Bates, all I was doing was pointing out that Bates got the D last year to be just AVERAGE or slightly below average.. I think one of the biggest things from this year compared to last year is the D's ability to seem to stop a team when it gets in the red zone. This year the D is ranked #7 in that stat..15 poss~~6 tds, 6 fg... [url=http://www.profootballweekly.com/PFW/NFL+Statistics/Inside+the+Red+Zone/2006/6redzn.htm?mode=defense]red zone stats[/url] Last years stats 15 poss ~~9 tds, 4 fgs after 5 games ranked 27th [url=http://www.profootballweekly.com/PFW/NFL+Statistics/Inside+the+Red+Zone/2005/5redzn.htm?mode=defense]2005 , 5 games red zone[/url] They have more sacks after 5 games then what the d had last year after 5 games and rank #10 But this years D is giving up the bigger plays that are TDS than what last years D did...I think that is what people are noticing, and rightly so...Stop giving up those types of TDs on the big pass plays and the D would be just about AVERAGE.. They have given up 28 20+ yard pass plays..and rank last..Indy has only given up 6... they have given up 6 40+ yard pass plays, and rank near bottom, Indy has given up NONE.. Those big plays are a result of what I think DB being out of postion for what ever reason, which never seemed to happen with last years D.. [/QUOTE]
